Did you mean to make it September 6, or are the jams going longer now?

Another dominoes variant you might do is one where the different numbers have different colors. Y’know, 4 would be four red pips, 5 would be five blue pips, etc. It’s a pretty common variation, but I don’t know if there’s a standard assignment for the colors.

Two I can suggest for sure are Hanafuda and Lenormand.

Domino and mahjong tiles are often manufactured in card form, which I think would be interesting.

One more suggestion, though you would need to see about getting permission from the creator (and I understand if you wouldn’t want the hassle) is the Decktet.

For anyone else that obsesses about exhausting the options in things like this, a checklist for the links (the black, underlined text):

At least, I think that’s all of them.

If generative image AI is what you mean to specifically prohibit, it might be worth just saying that in the license text. "Artificial intelligence or machine learning projects" could be interpreted pretty broadly, especially by anyone that doesn't know anything about those topics, or who hasn't been keeping up with AI art news.

Of course, I get it if you just want to head off as many potential future problems as possible.

(Also, is there a reason you haven't updated the license text in your older projects to say anything about generative AI?)

Just had to be sure--thanks!

Do we need Tilesetter to use the tiles made in Tilesetter? Or is a .tset file just *included*?

Did you ever figure out whether this was intentional or a glitch? This happened to me also, and for a game where death can come unexpectedly and without warning, a limited number of lives is a serious dampener on fun for me.

I suppose it's kind of more tangentially related to the jam, but I'm curious what other hex packs y'all might've found that are compatible with Hex Kit?

Apart from World Champ's pack and Nate Treme's pack--and the Dungeonwave Hex Assets that are a part of the jam--the only pack I've found so far is Steven Colling's Isle of Lore Pack (https://stevencolling.itch.io/isle-of-lore-2-hex-tiles-regular).

I haven't read The Frequency, but when I was looking at the preview page with the cryptic-looking hex map of the city, my initial thought was that it was some kind of tool to keep track of where the Character was in 'tuning'. A kind of visual representation of dimensional frequency space, if that makes sense. So one of the concepts I'm rolling around right now is using hex maps to map non-physical things. I'm starting to wonder if it's one of those ideas that sounds cooler in the abstract than in any concrete implementations, though. 

So, if I'm understanding you correctly: as long as there's only 2 colors on screen at any given time, we're good? Even if, like, one room or level is red/blue, and another room/level is green/black, for example?
